Abstract excerpt
Heterozygotic carriers of 21-hydroxylase deficiency were detected by prolonged ACTH stimulation test. Stepwise discriminant analysis was used for data processing, which helped derive a function: D = 0.052 x X1 + 0.05 x X2 -0.018 x X3 = 0.069, where X1 is 17-hydroxylase concentration 9 h after ACTH infusion, X2 ratio of basel hydrocortisone concentrations to 17-hydroxylase, and X3 ratio of hydrocortisone...
